GMS Internacional, S.L. services

Geotechnical Research and Soil Risk Assessment

Detailed Geological and Geomorphological Mapping Service

Geological and geomorphological research of photovoltaic plants, wind farms, roads, and other infrastructure, worldwide. Geomorphology is a basic tool for project risk analysis.

Geotechnical Surveys Service

Geological and geotechnical research of photovoltaic plants, wind farms, roads, and other infrastructure, with global reach.

Service for Pull-out Tests and Steel Pole Loading Tests

Specialists in load testing of columns in photovoltaic plants. Over the past 10 years, GMS Internacional has specialised in carrying out surveys for photovoltaic plants all over the world. One of the most common tests for these types of projects is the pole load test or «pull-out test». These tests are intended to determine if the desired type of profile (or pole) is capable of withstanding wind loads at a certain driving depth and for certain deformation tolerances. At least two types of profile are typically tested at two or three driving depths to verify design loads.

Hydrological Risk Assessment

Hydrological and Hydraulic Surveys Service

Hydrological and hydraulic surveys for photovoltaic plants. The objective of a hydrological survey is to define flood magnitude for given return periods. As part of the hydrological survey, hydraulic calculations are made with the aim of establishing the levels and velocity of water flowing within the plot or site in question and coming up with a pre-design of a drainage system which can cope with possible flooding during the return periods considered.

Service for Design of Drainage and Hydraulic Structures

Construction design of drainage systems and other hydraulic structures. GMS Internacional specialises in the integration of technical studies for photovoltaic plants, wind farms, highways, and other infrastructure. Over the last 10 years we have remained true to this vision and have incorporated new services into our existing portfolio of services. Among them is the construction design of drainage systems.
